dc.description	Information on performance of experimental corn hybrids and their parental inhreds is of importance to individuals and companies interested in developing commercial hybrids. Single cross hybrid yields are useful in predicting the future performance of that single cross hybrid per se, and the performance of double or threeÃ Ã Â·way crosses containing the same inbred lines. General combining ability, a measure of the average performance of an inbred in hybrid combination, is used to select inbreds for possible hybrid production and for inclusion in breeding programs aimed at developing improved corn inbreds.	en
